Way to Health
Week-long Sunday to Saturday
Our expert faculty provides step-by-step guidance, making Way to Health a great program choice for people who would like to use macrobiotics to support recovery from a serious illness, or those that want a “quick start” to optimizing their already good health.

To maximize what you learned in Way to Health, stay on for one more great week and get hands-on cooking and menu planning practice in the Way to Health PLUS program. This 2-week program option is the ideal plan for helping you achieve your health and healing goals. And when you attend both weeks back-to-back you get an additional $100 discount off our already very economical Way to Health PLUS program fee.

Way to Health PLUS
Week-long Sunday to Saturday
After attending Way to Health or other selected Kushi Institute programs, our Way to Health PLUS program gives you the opportunity for hands-on experiential practice in cooking and menu planning each morning, and in the afternoons you can enjoy the rich culture of the Berkshires or simply relax or stroll around our scenic location.

In a consultation the macrobiotic diet and lifestyle is adjusted by one of our very experience counselors for your particular situation. To ensure you know how to follow the counselors advice correctly, your best choices are to have a consultation during the Way to Health or MINI Way to Health programs.
